"What will my cousin do if Fu'an takes a concubine someday?"

Zhou Qiongyue looked up at the emperor with a strange look, "Your Majesty is so busy with all sorts of affairs, yet you're still concerned about such a trivial matter as your own?"

The emperor said what he really wanted to ask in a joking tone, "One is my sister, and the other is my good friend. I must keep this in mind."

Ever since getting married, people around Zhou Qiongyue have been reminding her of this issue, and Zhou Qiongyue has also thought about it seriously.

What to do, what can I do! Just like in the previous life, the boyfriend and girlfriend broke up and remained friends for the sake of the child.

But the premise is that those women don't mess with her. She has been in this era for a long time and has become quite crazy.

Zhou Qiongyue looked at the scenery beside her and said calmly, "Maybe I'll cry a lot, but then I'll just go on with my life! But my cousin the Emperor, you don't want to make things difficult for me, do you?"

The emperor looked at Zhou Qiongyue with a look that said, "Don't wrongly accuse a good person." "I didn't do that. Don't wrongly accuse a good person. What I want to say is that although you are not my biological sister, you are the same as my biological sister in my eyes.

Have you ever seen a prince consort take a concubine? So don't be afraid, I will make the decision for you when the time comes."

After hearing the emperor's words, Zhou Qiongyue felt much better. She bowed sincerely and thanked him, "Thank you, cousin."

The emperor nodded nonchalantly. This kind of affection was mutual. Although his cousin didn't mention her efforts, the emperor couldn't turn a blind eye.

To be fair, their cousin had been very kind to them since they were young. When they grew up, every time they asked her for a large sum of money, she would nag them but eventually she would give it to them.

Just for these reasons, he should protect her from being bullied.

As for his good friend Yuan Bohua, this marriage was his own request, not arranged by him. The emperor felt that since Yuan Bohua wanted to be his brother-in-law, he should know his limits.

If Yuan Bohua lost his composure, he couldn't blame the emperor for not standing on his side.

If my friend didn't marry my cousin, he could take any concubines he wanted, and the emperor might even give him a few beauties.

After Zhou Qiongyue thanked him, the atmosphere between the emperor and Zhou Qiongyue became awkward again.

The emperor couldn't stand this atmosphere any longer and took the initiative to speak, "Cousin, why aren't you talking? Ever since I ascended the throne, I've always felt like I've become estranged from you."

"My cousin is the emperor, so I have to give him some face. I am also worried that the emperor will kill my entire clan." After Zhou Qiongyue finished speaking, she made an exaggerated frightened expression.

Zhou Qiongyue thought to herself, it seems that her cousin doesn't like this kind of measured interaction. It seems that she will have to be more casual when she meets the emperor in the future.

The Emperor was amused by Zhou Qiongyue's statement. "How can you have nine clans to kill? Don't your nine clans include me?"

Since Zhou Qiongyue knew that the emperor liked to get along with others in a casual way, she would of course cooperate with him. "Yes, my nine clans also include my cousin."

The emperor looked at his cousin, who was so graceful and elegant, and thought of her former fierceness. He couldn't help but sigh, "I feel that after your marriage, you are becoming more and more worthy of your title of Princess."

When Zhou Qiongyue heard the emperor's words, her first reaction was that it was outrageous.

Why did she feel that the emperor cousin's words and deeds all expressed regret?

"It's mainly because I'm getting older now. I used to think it was a big deal, but now when I think about it, it's just that.

But if my cousin gives the prince a beauty, he will definitely see the cousin who beat people in the past."

"My cousin is mistaken. Even for my own sake, I cannot do such a thing. If I do such a thing, my mother will punish me immediately."

The emperor added in his heart that even if it wasn't for the favor, he would never do such a thing for the money.

Although Zhou Qiongyue felt that her aunt would scold the emperor if he gave the prince a beauty, she was not sure if the emperor would take back his order.

Zhou Qiongyue obviously couldn't say that her aunt loved her the most in front of her own son. "Your Majesty, you're joking. My aunt loves my cousin the most. How could she bear to cause trouble for you?"

The emperor really couldn't say that his mother didn't love him the most. The emperor was also a smart man. He knew that if the three of them really had to be ranked, the two brothers would indeed be ranked ahead of their cousin.

So the emperor could only quickly change the subject, "Kang'er is already so old, does my cousin really intend to let him be a playboy?"

"I only have these two children. Chang'er will inherit the palace in the future, so there is no choice. As for Kang'er, I'll leave him alone, as long as he is an upright person."

Zhou Qiongyue did not tell the emperor that Kang'er wanted to learn how to do business from him. Based on Zhou Qiongyue's understanding of her son, she felt that Yuan Chaokang was not the kind of person who was willing to help others make money.

Zhou Qiongyue wouldn't help her son make such a decision. Besides, if a child showed off something he learned, no one would take it seriously.

The emperor had to praise Zhou Qiongyue, "Cousin, you really dote on your child."

If this happened in other noble families, the child would already have the title of Prince, and they would have to increase their efforts in educating the child in order to ensure that the title could be passed down for several more generations.

"In fact, not having ambition has its advantages. Being able to be in your care, your Highness and I are very happy.

When the time comes, I will take my son and live in the south if I want to, or in the north if I want to. What a wonderful life!

The emperor followed his cousin's words and thought about it. For his cousin, such a life is indeed a good one. The emperor could not help but nod his head.

Speaking of the prince, Zhou Qiongyue asked directly, "By the way, cousin, is the prince coming back?"

The emperor smiled. He was the right person to ask about this matter. "For something as important as this, he must be back. He should be on his way and will definitely arrive in the evening."

"Grandma has passed away, and my cousins, aunts, and uncles are all here. She must be very happy down there." Zhou Qiongyue didn't know how to say that she was very happy about the prince's return, so she could only say that her grandmother was happy.

The emperor nodded in agreement. Although he had a general impression of his grandmother, he had to admit that she was kind to him and his younger brother.

Although he knew that his grandmother was sometimes confused and always caused trouble for his mother, but hearing about it was not as devastating as seeing it with one's own eyes.

After all, no matter how angry the queen was, she could not complain about her mother's unreliability in front of her son.

Before the emperor could say anything else, the two of them had already arrived in the front yard.

When the emperor arrived at the front yard, there must be someone coming out to greet him. Marquis Cheng'en had already received the news and was waiting at the gate of the front yard holding Yuan Chaokang.

As soon as Zhou Wencan saw the man, he immediately put Yuan Chaokang down from his arms. They both bowed politely, "Your Majesty!"
